The republicans were not permitting the dems to see the classified briefs on these strikes. I want to know how many republicans knew of these illegal strikes and contributed to concealing them.

Somebody needs to teach Hegseth that 'fog of war' does not mean literal smoke.

A 15 point flip in the margin, is about 430 in 2028 electoral college favoring dems. A 20 point flip would be a miracle. But fun to think about. Sweep.

what a difference a week makes. We've gone from Hegseth calling for the prosecution of Kelley under UCMJ to Kelley looking into prosecution of Hegseth under the UCMJ. The difference is Hegseth might have actually violated the law.

companies that use AI to replace employees should be charged an economic impact tax. This should go directly to fund unemployment and SS to pay for those displaced out of the workforce.

What should happen? Every person who violated one of the victims knows who they are. They should step forward. But really, what kind of integrity can we expect from any of that criminal enterprise. www.pbs.org/newshour/amp...

I see Trump celebrating that he pardoned people he didn't intend on, they voted for him in their criminal activity. that makes it okay. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Hegseth extends his homophobia. www.newsnationnow.com/us-news/mili...

a though experiment: If republicans exodus the house and dems gain the speakership early in 2026. How does that impact the mids? Can republicans turn it to their favor?

AI companies should be taxed an economic surcharge fee to pay for the unemployment it is creating.

@melrobbins.bsky.social I saw you on Seth Myers, enjoyed the show. I am looking forward to finding the book. It sounds like someone has found the words that 20 years of therapy has helped me accept.

It seems across the board the courts have had enough of the DOJ's lack of integrity. apnews.com/article/dc-p...

I was a 23 yrs old E4, working in a SCIF, dispersing TS-SCI material and faced a moment when I questioned the legality of what was in front of me. With a Lt. Col. staring me down. Remembering you have rights in that kind of power diff. is not easy. Reminders are a good thing.

If you ever wondered what the impact pharmacies have on immunization, now might be the time. I know the Rite Aid closure is affecting my neighborhood.

I wish the republicans would realize, in addition to their voters, and their own integrity... the world is watching, listening to the morality of the US. What message do these congresspersons want to send the world...US leadership supports...? What? And yes, that matters to the security of the US.

I don't understand Todd Blanche's excuse that he didn't have Epstein's email. Maxwell's discovery should have all the emails to/from her. Why weren't they in her discovery? if they were, why didn't he have them?

when the COVID subsidies were added to the ACA, it made it accessible to more low income families, which are a higher risk pool. The rise in "average" premiums is going to be greater than the rise in individual rates. Republicansare conflating these.

we need a constitutional amendment that explicitly prevents anyone running for an office within the succession of powers for an office they are term limited from holding.

The implosion going on in MAGA and its association with corrupt governance may make a run by a traditional republican in 2028 viable. They would be harder to defeat than anyone trying to run on a continuation of Trump.

I'm not happy dems caved but... I had to retire because I couldn't find a job. I would be nutritionally lacking if not for the food bank. I have no insurance, I couldn't afford the ACA before the subsidies lapsed. I'm too young for Medicare. I personally put food and shelter over insurance.

I wonder who idea it was for Walmart to try to lie about the cost of groceries. Walmart? Or Trump? I don't trust either.

the image of Trump standing coldly staring into the absent cameras is identical to his cold response to children in his own country going hungry. He doesn't care! He has never cared!

I don't understand the position that tarrifs are forward facing. they are imposed on domestic entities. they compel a domestic power to an action, not a foreign power. regardless of the foreign motivation, the act itself is domestic.

American businesses should consider boycotting foreign beef.

this is what right wing indoctrination looks like. Oklahoma's Ryan Walters announces plan to establish Turning Point chapters at all state high schools share.google/JLPIFeugPtO5...

time to test the birthday card for Trump DNA and prints.

I swear Hegseth is reading his 'poetry' off of notes on the floor in front of him. He has to look at the floor before he starts each phrase of his 'off the cuff' response to getting his Title for sucking up to Trump.

a pondering Breaking into the dawn, watching the sun peer through the trees, song dancing on the breeze. I pondered, so many trees as a boy, how rare the wonder of a nest is there. Perhaps now as then, a multitude sings, in prospect of journeys ahead. Or, critically, of life among us.

Marjorie Taylor Greene doesn't want you to know the name of her opponent but will try every desperate attempt to save her seat. My name is Shawn Harris. I am a Democrat, husband, father, Retired Brigadier General, farmer, and I'm running against MTG. Can you spread the word?

When I see stuff like this and I think of Trump's National database on everybody, I get very concerned. www.sciencealert.com/bold-plan-to...

the big betrayal bill has so much negativity, The senate is changing its name to try to distance them from the BBBB!

The value of Project 2025 wasn't that it was a book. It is what the book did. A firm identifiable plan. Focused communication, unified ideas with loyalty to those ideas, mobile in a mobile society, marketable, etc. This can be done without a book but it must get done!!!

Brett's authoring of the recent decision was pure political theater in our courts. Having received Trump's ire for her recent joining with liberals, this unusual authoring smells too much like a staged event. Unworthy of the robe.

this is the kind of regulation we may need www.pcgamer.com/hardware/den...

One of the great things about science is its leaders know it builds on the shoulders of those who came before. If only we could get our politicians to learn the same lesson.

Lisa are you gonna wake up and be a human being in the morning? Try it it might feel good

Removing access to microwave data for weather doesn't just remove cloud penetrating data for weather purposes. Why is Trump worried about cloud penetrating satellite, outside of weather purposes?

2026. BOTH houses, defend ICE

The republican talk about the constitution as though it was a document designed to withstand the changes of time and that the 14th amendment was so narrow as to only apply to the moment. I don't find continuity there.

we need to separate biased media from fake media. CNN, MSNBC, Fox, they're all biased. It's human. It's a public debate over ideas. One that I depend upon. The bias isn't the issue, only if it is factual. We don't need to eliminate bias, only falsehood.

When I consider the U.S. response to 9/11 I find little difference in Israel's response to Gaza. In our case it only felt like the terrorists lived in our country. We went too far and committed crimes as a nation. This is a 9/11 for them. They've gone too far.

Trump went into an addict's home, blew up their lab equipment, left them the drugs, said "Don't!" and then went home. Now, he believes they've quit their addiction? Huh..?

I don't understand the republicans' difficulty in doing the right thing here. They're getting primaried either way. Yes=by MAGA, No=by the people. The bill is too unpopular.

A bet is a tax on bulldust, and I'm here to tax dishonest policy advice. I'm willing to bet my family's sexy blue minivan against whatever it is that the CEA chair drives that he's wrong, and there's not a chance in hell that Trump will cut the national debt by even a penny.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Is it possible those escavators scooping up the blue ash are removing atomic contaminated ground?
